Blacking out the tail lights will be a pretty simple fix. Will blend them in with the black outline. I'm sure we will see a lot of this.

I don't think the new tails will make it past the next refresh. Doesn't matter if the C4 had ovals. At least oval is 90%of round. These camaro lights will upset the purists. And purists are 75% of corvette buyers.

in the photo Econ posted.. bad idea, the vents get blocked with that design.

Also, I dont think any purist can really harken back to the round tail lights, nor should they. And i dont see how you can call them classic when they have changed 3 times?? Its like Z owners saying that a twin turbo is the classic Z setup.. when its not.. or that a v6 is.. when its not..

As Mike Pointed out the tails havnt always been round. Also the very first corvette only had one light per side instead of 2.

The fact is still that if you looked at this car you would recognize it as a corvette.

P.S also, they stepped away from popup headlamps and that didnt cause too much of a problem.

Either way, im the type of person that as long as I can recognize it as the corvette, and it stays true to its purpose (moderately prices really fast sportscar etc) then im okay as long each new version moves the car forward and not backwards.

the C7 is so nice looking. The Chevy dealers are going to have a big problem selling the remaining c6 that they got.

Put some gold wheels on that one and you could have 49er Super Bowl celebration edition!

After seeing the new Vette in the Jay Leno video I changed my mind; it isn't the air ducts, vents and intakes that look cheap, it is that awful, terrible red paint...YUCK! In grey, blue or especially black it may look as sexy as a 370Z.
